Welcome to the Bribie Island Bicycle User Group website!

The Bribie Island Bicycle User Group (Bribie BUG) was formed to provide an outlet for locals to get together, have a good time, promote fitness and discover new places on Bribie Island and surrounding areas and now has over 140 members! Bribie Island IS the perfect place to cycle! It has beautiful beaches and the ideal tropical climate. We also aim to address issues that need to be fixed in the community such as infrastructure, cycle awareness and improvement to cycle paths.

Bribie BUG has rides every Saturday morning, either on the island or to Ningi/Sandstone Point, leaving the Information Centre, Benabrow Avenue, Bellara at 8.00am.

Rides take 2 to 3 hours (including coffee) and cover about 25km at a moderate pace to suit those participating.All cyclists welcome. Contact Bob and Joyce Newell (3408 7743).

Monday morning is our 'Milk Run' where riders join us and drop off wherever they want on a 24 km ride around Bribie. For further information, contact Peter Crawford (3408 9292)

We also have an Early Birds ride on Monday and Wednesday mornings leaving the Information Centre at 6:30 am in winter (May to August) and 6:00 am in summer (September to April). These are about an hour through the bush, beach, and streets of Banksia Beach with the option of coffee or the Laughing Group afterwards.

We also often have other rides and social activities on and off the Island, which are publicised through our free email list. Please send an email to bribiebug@yahoo.com.au if you would like to be added to this list.

We look forward to seeing you on a ride!
